Got an "invitation" to purchase "first and only Presidential Coin Series in United States history!"  Included was this little quiz.  I didn't do too well.  

1.  The only President born on the 4th of July.  Calvin Coolidge

2.  The President who was buried with his head resting on a copy of the Constitution.  Andrew Johnson

3.  The first President to call his Washington, D.C. residence the "White House."  Theodore Roosevelt (prior to his term, it was known as the Executive Mansion or the President's House.)

4.  The President who is distantly related to Presidents Pierce, Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, and Ford as well as Winston Churchill.  George H.W. Bush

5.  The President whose wife started the tradition of playing "Hail to the Chief" whenever a President appeared at a state function.  John Tyler

6.  The first President to visit all 50 states.  Richard Nixon

7.  The first President whose voice was heard over the radio.  Warren G. Harding

8.  The President who grew up speaking a language other than English. Martin Van Buren (he grew up speaking Dutch.)

9.  The only President to be married in the White House.  Grover Cleveland

10.  The President who is credited with saying, "I may be President of the United States but my private life is nobody's damn business."  [No, not Bill Clinton ]  Chester A. Arthur

And it was Harry Truman who had a sign on his desk that said "The Buck Stops Here" and he meant it.



Oh, and I declined the "invitation."
